Research on Innovation Capability of National High-tech Zones: Model Building and Empirical Analysis Jiangfu Zhang and Xin Gu
Abstract The paper builds a theoretic innovative model of national high-tech zones according to the characteristics of regional innovation system. Based on the regional panel data of 56 national high-tech zones in 2011, the author analyses their innovation abilities through the way of principal component analysis. The results show that the innovation ability of the national high-tech zone is mainly embodied in the three principal component factors and the input of scientific and technical personnel and funds, technology innovation activities, innovation efficiency. Besides, the innovation ability of utility value, which are the three principal component factors of 56 national high-tech zones possess, is not consistent. In addition, the input of scientific and technical personnel and funds is closely related to innovation ability of high-tech zones. Lastly, the innovation ability of the national high-tech zones still has a “high in the East, medium in the Middle Part, low in the West” pattern.

11.1 Introduction Since 1991, China has successively established 56 national high tech Industrial Development Zone (calls it NHTZ for short). NHTZ has become Technology Industrial Park to gather resources for innovation and promote the development of high J.

tech industry, which makes an important contribution in promoting local and national economic development. According to statistics: China’s identified high-tech enterprises has soared from around 2,587 in 1991 to 51,764 in 2011, and employment growth from 12 to 859 million. Profits increased from 8 billion yuan to 6,261 billion yuan, the corporate tax increase from 39 billion yuan to 4,968 billion yuan, export growth from 1.8 to 2,476 billion. In the past 20 years, China’s growth rate of the main economic indicators of NHTZ is more than 70 %, NHTZ plays an important role in promoting the regional innovation capacity. The research on innovation ability of NHTZ belongs to the RIS category, through summarizing the research of regional innovation capacity at home and abroad, it’s mainly reflected in four aspects: First, research on the factors influencing regional innovation capability, OECD focuses on R&D investment contribut
